Child & Family Therapy
In person & Virtual
Understanding your child’s needs.
Children experience stress, anxiety, frustration, sadness, and overwhelm just like adults do—but they don't always have the words to explain what's happening.
Child therapy provides a supportive space where children can express themselves, build emotional skills, and learn healthy ways to cope with life's challenges. Through conversation, play, creativity, and age-appropriate therapeutic approaches, we help children better understand their emotions and develop confidence in themselves.
What Can Therapy Help With?
We work with people on a range of topics, including but not limited to:
❋ Anxiety, stress, and overwhelm❋ Emotional regulation difficulties❋ School-related stress❋ Friendship and social challenges❋ ADHD❋ Family transitions, separation, or divorce❋ Behavioural concerns❋ Self-esteem and confidenceWhether your child is struggling with anxiety, emotional regulation, friendships, self-esteem, school-related stress, family changes, or behavioural concerns, therapy can help them feel more supported, understood, and equipped to navigate their world.

Our Approach
We believe children do best when they feel safe, understood, and supported. Therapy is tailored to each child's age, personality, strengths, and needs.
Our approach is collaborative and evidence-based, drawing from child-centred, attachment-informed, cognitive-behavioural, mindfulness, and play-based approaches when appropriate. We work at your child's pace while helping them develop the skills and confidence needed to thrive.
Parents and caregivers are an important part of the process. We work alongside families to provide guidance, support, and practical strategies that can help reinforce growth outside of therapy.
Sessions are available online and in-person at 1364 Dundas Street West.
Services Offered
We offer 50-minute sessions (starting at $155), both online and in-person in Toronto’s West End (Trinity Bellwoods). Evening and weekend appointments are available to accommodate busy schedules.
We also provide sliding scale spots if cost is a concern and insurance receipts for Registered Psychotherapist coverage.FAQs
-
In the initial session we’ll put together a plan and set a cadence that feels supportive.
-
It depends! Some people see quick shifts in just a few sessions, while others may need or want longer-term support. As a general guideline, plan to commit to at least 12 sessions. We’ll check in regularly about how things are going.
-
We accept credit card and debit payments. Receipts are provided after each session for insurance reimbursement, if applicable.
-
Yes, we have a limited number of sliding scale spots available — please feel free to reach out and inquire. We can also help you navigate free programs that may exist in your community, as additional support to our individual work if that’s appropriate or wanted.
-
We’ll check in regularly — not just with how you’re feeling day to day, but with what really matters to you. We use a measurement-based care approach, which means we’ll track your progress over time using simple check-ins or questionnaires. This helps us stay on the same page, adjust our approach if needed, and make sure therapy is actually helping you feel better.

There’s no one-size-fits-all answer, but often you’ll start to feel more grounded, clearer, or more equipped to handle things. Sometimes we’ll know because you’ve met the goals we set together. Other times, you might just feel ready to take a break. We can talk about this openly — there’s no pressure to keep going longer than you want to. You can always come back if life throws you something new.
-
That’s completely valid — and unfortunately, not uncommon. Maybe a past therapist felt checked out, too clinical, or just didn’t get you. That can make it harder to trust the process again. If you’re open to trying, we can go at your pace. We welcome your questions, and your past experiences — the good and the not-so-great. This is your space, and we’re here to support your goals.
